Imran Khan leads thousands at election rally in Lahore as Islamabad police arrive to arrest him
Lahore, Mar 13 (PTI) Pakistan's ousted premier Imran Khan Monday led a march of thousands of his supporters as Islamabad police arrived here to arrest him after two non-bailable arrest warrants were issued against him, a day after he called off his party's election rally following a ban on public gatherings in Punjab's provincial capital.
The 70-year-old former cricketer-turned-politician's supporters threw rose petals at a convoy carrying him to Data Darbar where he is expected to address his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) supporters.
Khan left his Zaman Park residence as Islamabad police arrived in Lahore on a special helicopter to arrest the PTI chief after two non-bailable arrest warrants were issued against him for failing to appear in courts in the Toshakhana case and for threatening a woman magistrate while addressing a public gathering here last year, The Express Tribune newspaper reported.
